Does anybody draw around templates and cut out shapes with scissors anymore?<does anybody="" draw="" around="" templates="" and="" cut="" out="" shapes="" with="" scissors="" anymore?="">
If I can use a rotary cutter I do. I only cut out shapes for applique.

My tip for keeping your ruler on your template while you cut is to use a piece of vinyl. It tends to stick enough to the paper to prevent movement. If you don't want to buy any, just use that vinyl that they are placing over screens for electronics. I just took some off my new clock. Free. It does have markings, but not a big concern since you are only using the edge over your template.</does>
